Casa Ara near the Caribbean beaches

My place is close to the beach and family-friendly activities. It is good for couples and groups. You can enjoy the view from the balcony and the privacy inside the house. Walking around the neighborhood gives you great spots for hiking and jogging, all in the middle of nature. Sightings of birds and monkeys are very common as they like the surroundings. The house is far enough from the center of Cahuita to have some quiet time, but close enough to go there to eat and buy groceries.
